A photograph of a blue-painted temple entrance with a narrow metal-framed doorway shut by a padlock, set in a plain blue wall. Several coconuts sit on the lower step and a small brick lies at the threshold. To the right a black board with white Tamil lettering lists names, and a second signboard stands nearby. Sunlight falls across pale concrete paving and a blue plinth with a small square opening. No people are visible in the scene.
